Question

---Tom, why didn’t you go to work today?
---Oh, the manager said he no longer wanted to see me again; ______, I was fired.

1. A.
   above all
2. B.
   after all
3. C.
   in other words
4. D.
   in some way

Answer 1

C
试题分析：此处above all首先； after all毕竟； in other words 换句话说； in some way在某种程度上。句意：— Tom你为什么今天不上班呢？—噢，经理说他不想再看到我了。换句话说，我被解雇了。根据句意选C。
考点：考查介词短语的含义。
